I love going to flea markets and antique sales....Its one of my favorite things to do......

I foundtwo chairs for my dinning room that will be perfect but.....

Are these the ugliest chairs you have ever seen?

Now, maybe in their day......

they might of been something else, but a cat has made them home....and they look like they had been in someones garage.......

in other words .........

they are no longer the cats meow, but for $25.00 they will be perfect for my dinning room.

The style is perfect and once their reupholstered they will look great.

I could paint the legs a fun color.....

Or paint them the same color as my dinning room set. Check out the post I did on painting my dinning roomhere.I did have these fabric samples in my office, but I sent away for some new fabric samples.

This fabric is from Fabricut and it's a pretty large print.

It could work on the back of the chairs and a stripe on the front.

This is one of my pillow fabrics, it could be a little boring.Iwould like to introduce a little red in my dinning room. You really learn your personal style when you have a blog and Pinterest.

I have two styles I'm attracted to for my own home....

One is a California Beach Style and the other is a Houston feel.

I always recommendto my clients to start a Pinterest page. Ithelps them define what they want.

These are the fabrics I used in my living room.

I will show you the new samples as soon as I get them. It would be nice to get them done before the holidays, but I'm not counting on it.

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? I was hoping I would be done before Thanksgiving. Are you familiar with Novica?

They have wonderful products and they are going to give my readers a gift certificate. Would you like that?

I will post the give away this week and Tina from The Enchanted Home Blog will be with us the next week. Tina is going to share with you how she got started blogging and some tips that have helped her.

I'm also going to be meeting PenelopeBianchi for lunch on Tuesday. She is lovely and I'm looking forward to meeting her in person, to see her home gohere.
